Queen Ophelia used her powerful light magic to dispel the miasma, clearing a path for the Allied Army to advance. While the Emperors and the rest of the army moved forward, Ethan stayed behind with some knights to face Haster and his monsters alone. Ethan and Haster immediately engaged in a fierce battle.

The violent shockwave had barely settled when both figures disappeared once again.

Boom!

Another deafening explosion echoed across the valley.

Ethan and Haster clashed repeatedly at terrifying speed. Their figures flashed across the battlefield so quickly that even many Divine Knights could only see streaks of white and black light colliding again and again.

Every collision released another powerful shockwave that blasted apart nearby rocks and sent the remaining miasma rolling across the mountains. The ground cracked beneath their feet while loose boulders shattered into countless fragments. The air itself trembled under the overwhelming pressure of their battle, and every clash caused the surrounding warriors to instinctively step back.

Bang!

Haster swung several massive tentacles toward Ethan from different directions. Each one moved like a giant whip and carried enough force to shatter a mountain. The enormous tentacles tore through the air with terrifying speed, leaving behind deep trails in the thick miasma.

Ethan calmly stepped forward.

His sword flashed several times.

Slash!

Slash!

Slash!

The incoming tentacles were cut apart one after another. Pieces of black flesh flew through the air before crashing onto the ground. However, before they could even stop moving, the severed flesh suddenly twisted violently.

Thick black veins spread across the broken pieces, and within moments they wriggled like living creatures. New tentacles rapidly grew from the severed ends until they were completely restored.

Haster laughed coldly.

"You can't kill me that easily."

Without waiting for a reply, dozens of his eyes suddenly opened at the same time. The countless eyes locked onto Ethan from every direction. Their pupils contracted, and dark rays instantly shot out from each one of them. The attacks filled the entire battlefield, turning the sky into a rain of black light.

Ethan narrowed his eyes.

Instead of retreating, he rushed straight into the storm of attacks.

His sword moved continuously.

Brilliant arcs of holy light appeared one after another.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The dark rays exploded as they collided with the sword light, filling the surroundings with countless explosions. Light and darkness collided without stopping, and every explosion sent waves of wind sweeping through the battlefield. The thick miasma was repeatedly torn apart before gathering together once again.

The remaining Transcendent Knights stared at the battle with disbelief.

"He is actually fighting him head-on."

"After breaking through, his strength has increased by this much?"

Even the experienced warriors found it difficult to believe what they were witnessing. Ethan had only just stepped into the Transcendent Realm, yet he was already exchanging blows equally with Haster.

Heliana quietly watched the battle from a distance. Her beautiful face remained calm, but the hand holding her crystal staff tightened slightly. Her purple eyes never left Ethan for even a moment. She knew Ethan had become much stronger after his breakthrough.

Even so...

Haster was no ordinary opponent.

At that moment, several monstrous humans suddenly broke away from the battlefield and charged toward Ethan from behind. Their twisted bodies rushed forward with frightening speed while their claws reached toward him.

"Protect the Marquise!"

One of the Transcendent Knights immediately shouted.

The remaining knights rushed forward without hesitation.

Boom!

Boom!

Their weapons collided with the monstrous humans, forcing them away from Ethan before they could interfere. Powerful shockwaves erupted as swords, spears, magic, and monstrous claws repeatedly collided. The battlefield quickly split into several fierce battles. Steel clashed against claws while magic collided with darkness, and the mountains continuously shook under the violent impacts. Broken rocks rolled down the cliffs while countless cracks spread across the valley.

Meanwhile...Ethan and Haster had already exchanged dozens of blows.

Neither side showed any sign of slowing down.

Haster's countless tentacles surged forward like a raging tidal wave. They attacked from every direction at once, leaving almost no room to dodge. Every strike carried terrifying power, and the surrounding air exploded wherever they passed.

Ethan took a deep breath.

His eyes became perfectly calm.

He ignored the endless attacks rushing toward him while his grip around the sword slowly tightened. Brilliant holy light gathered around the blade, becoming brighter with every passing moment. The radiance spread across the sword until it resembled a small sun shining within the dark valley. The surrounding darkness immediately retreated before its overwhelming brilliance.

Without hesitation...

He swung.A massive crescent of holy light tore across the battlefield.

Everything standing in its path was split apart.

The thick miasma was cleanly cut open.

Several charging monstrous humans were instantly sliced apart before they even realized what had happened.

Even Haster's wall of writhing tentacles was completely severed.

Boom!

The attack struck Haster directly.

The monstrous creature was blasted backward across the valley before crashing violently into the side of a mountain. The entire cliff exploded into countless pieces as enormous cracks rapidly spread through the rock. Dust and shattered stone rose high into the sky, covering the battlefield in a thick cloud.

For a brief moment...

The entire battlefield fell silent.

Everyone looked toward the collapsing mountain without blinking.

Before anyone could celebrate...

A deep rumbling sound echoed from within the dust.

Rumble...

Rumble...

Then several gigantic tentacles suddenly burst through the broken rocks.

They slammed into the mountainside one after another before slowly pulling Haster back onto his feet. Broken stones continued falling from his body while thick black blood dripped onto the ground below.

His body was covered with deep sword wounds.

Holy light continued burning across the injuries, causing black smoke to rise continuously into the air.

Yet...

The wounds slowly began closing before everyone's eyes.

The torn flesh twisted together while the missing parts regenerated at an unnatural speed. Within only a few breaths, the terrifying injuries had almost completely healed, leaving behind only faint traces of the holy light still burning against his body.

Haster lowered his head for a brief moment.

Then he slowly raised it again and looked directly at Ethan.

This time...

The smile on his face had completely disappeared.

His countless eyes stared at Ethan with pure hatred.

"I underestimated you."

His cold voice echoed throughout the valley.

"You are really a cockroach."

The moment those words left his mouth, the darkness surrounding his body suddenly exploded outward once again. Thick black energy surged into the sky while the remaining miasma violently swirled around him. An even more terrifying pressure descended upon the battlefield, making everyone present instinctively hold their breath.
